Weather advisories are calling for a potentially dangerous mix of snow and freezing rain this afternoon. PWCS is monitoring the situation and will announce as early as possible any potential changes to afternoon dismissal times and/or cancellation or postponement of afternoon and evening activities, if needed to ensure safety. Please check pwcs.edu, news media, and PWCS text and email announcements frequently.

The food show scheduled for tonight at Patriot HS has been cancelled and will be rescheduled.

This year at Bingo Night, the PTO is very excited to be offering several Premium Luck of the Draw items in lieu of the Silent Auction and Heads and Tails games of Bingo Nights past. Tickets are $1 each for Tier 2 Premium Luck of the Draw prizes, or exchange five $1 tickets for one entry for a chance to win a Tier 1 Premium Luck of the Draw prize.

Tier 1 prizes include an Xbox One, a GoPro, an iPad Mini 16GB with Wi-Fi, an E.D.G.E. Party Trailer Birthday Party, and Disney Park Hopper Tickets.

This is an event your family won’t want to miss! Thank you, and we hope to see you at Bingo Night!

Book Fair

The Spring Scholastic Book Fair is right around the corner! We are having the Book Fair from March 16-20. Family Night is Tuesday, March 17 from 5-8 p.m. Monday / Tuesday are preview days and Wednesday / Thursday of that week will be purchase days. Friday will be an all-call to purchase.

Interested in volunteering for the book fair? There will be a flier going home this week in student backpacks. Please keep an eye out for it, and return it to us as soon as you can. We will call to confirm the date and time.

If you have any other book fair questions, please feel free to contact Miss Haggerty at HaggerJL@pwcs.edu

Grades 3-5 Student Email Accounts

Microsoft's new Student Advantage Program permits downloading and use of the entire Office 365 suite (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, OneNote, Publisher, Lync, Outlook, and Access) on up to five compatible PCs or Macs at no charge.

The free program is open to students in grades 3-12. Downloaded software can be used by family members too. It includes free automatic updates, and is good for as long as students remain in Prince William County Public Schools. Access to Microsoft's OneDrive makes it easy to synch data between personal computers.

Students must login to their email on the PWCS network first before you will have access at home. All students will have completed this process by mid February. Their password paper will come home with them once they have logged in at school.

Congratulations to our Spelling Bee Winner, Janet Lu! She will go on to participate in the 37th Annual Prince William County Spelling Bee at Godwin Middle School on March 13, 2015 at 7:00 p.m.
